We have a good stock of
fans-all kinds, and at all
prices. We have not bought
extravagantly, but we have
purchased carefully, and as
a result we are able to pre-
sent an extensive variety.
We are selling fancy fold
ing fans as low as 10 cents
each, cheaply made, to be
sure; but they'll stir up just
as much breezs as those
costing S each. A little
better grade in paper fans
we ask L. Is cents for. Ivory
stick fans we ask only 25
cents for, and the same is
our price for linen chrome
fans. For 80 cents we have
fancy sateen fans. Gauze
fans we are selling at 2lo.
25c., ssc. and a,: Aee: Our
gilt-stiok satin fans are
marked 90 cents, and so ar,
our satin fans with olive
wood sticks.
We have two lots of fans
left over from last seasons
stock. For some reason
they don't sell very well,
and they are shopworn.
That's one reason why they
ought to be reduced. One
lot comprises SO fans
marked last season at from
IS to 35 cents. You can take
a choice at 10 cents each.
Then we have "a gauze fans
cardinal. pink, blue,
cream, and white largo,
well made, and marked
$1.24 last season. They
didn't sell well at this price,
so we reduced them TO 90
cents. They sold better.
This year, though, there
doesn't seem to be any de-
mand for them even at 90
cents. Look and see if you
think they are worth rs
cents each.
In that 5-inch Silk Sash
Ribbon, at 10 cents a yard,
we have cardinal and
brown left.

first thought he would stop work for
the season. But upon reconsideration
the fact that the employees would be
greatly embarrassed by stOppage at

fires and repair. On Friday, the 9Th

night it was cool enough to handle,
the repairs were made at once, 1900

Mayor Holcomb Immediately noti-

officer was sent to Uniontown, who
found that the prisoners were not the
parties they were supposed to be,
though they are doubtless crooks" "
The following special to the Plain

matter:

Kennedy, one of the Cleveland fur
robbers, is not McMunn, but he is
doubtless a man whom the Pittsburg
authorities would be delighted to in
terview. Patrolman Willis and ex-
Turnkey Rentor, of Allegheny, have
returned from Uniontown, where they
viewed the prisoner and are satisfied
he is not McMunn.

fell asleep, and was run over by a north
bound freight train. We understand

The engineer says the smoke from his

The Germany Situa-
 ton.


 Exchange: The best indication oi the situation of affairs between France and Germany IS given by the remarks of General Boulanger, of the French army, Tn answer to tue proposition to make him member of the French cabinet. The general said he would enter the proposed new cabinet only on the condition that the French army be immediate lly placed on war footing, adding that there is no telling when hos tilitles may be provoked on the frontier.
 This alternative proposed by Gen eral Boulanger really amounts to placing the French army in a condi tion to provoke hosilitles, Or using the army for ..aaar purpose, because the diplomatic arrangements be- tween France and Germany are such that active military operations by either side is at once construed to mean war.
 The relations between these coun tries are now very strained, and eve " indication points to war at no far distant day. Actual war may be averted for some time, but it seems bound to come. And what is more Bismarck and Boulanger appear to be desirous of hasteaing the conflict as much as possible.
 France will never rest peaceably with Germany in possession of Alsace Lorraine, and Germany will not be satisfied until she has anoth- CT chance to thrash France.

AN NIMPoRTANT OPINION.
Time of Meeting of County Equalization Boards and County Courts Chang
 ed by the Act of
 March. 1887.

NA0AGns AOCss
 To His Excellency, s. ?. Hughes, Gov.
 ernor of Arkansas:
 SiR-I have the honor to acknowl- edge receipt of your communcatior of 18th inst, in which you ask whether, in my opinion, the act ol March 2S, 1887. entitled "An act tc amend the revenue laws of this state" changes ths tune of the meet ing of the county board of equaliza- tion from the first Monday in June, and the time of the meeting of the county court, composed of the coun- ty judge and majority of the justic es of the peace of each county, from the first Monday In Ja,,s .cE year 1887.
 In reply:
 Section l of the act of March 2S, 1887, amends section $500 of Mans fields Digest, SO as to read as follows
 "The county court of each county, composed of the judge and majori- ty of the justices of the peace of each county, shall meet annually on the first Monday n October for the purpose of levying the county taxes and making appropriations for the expenses of the court"
 Section 32 of said act amends Sec tion 56S7 of Mahsfields Digest by changing the time of appointment by the governor of the county boards of equalization from on or before the 1st day of April, in the year 1883, and every two years thereafter, to on or before the 1st day of August, and every two years thereafter.
 Section B amends Section 56S9 of said digest by requiring the sessions of said boards of equalization for the purpose of equalizing the assessment of personal property, moneys and credits in each county, to be held on the second Monday in September, 1887, and annually thereafter.
 Section 34 amends Section 5692 of said Digest, by acquiring saId Board to meet on tine second Monday m September, 1887, and every second year thereafter. and take the oath presented by said section.
 Section 58 is as follows: "Section 5S-Providcd nothing in this act shall be construed to affect the time as now fixed for the assessment for tue year 1887, now begun, and there shall be no other assessment had for 1887, and this act shall take effect and be ln force sixty days after it's passage"
 I am, therefore, of opinion that the act of March 28, 1887, has changed the time if the meeting of the Coun ty Bolrd of Equalization from the first Monday Tn June to the second Monday Tn September, and of the county courts, composed of the judge and majority Of the Justices of the Peace, from the first Monday in July to the first Monday in October, and that this change applies to 1887.
 Very respectfully,
 DAN w. JONES,
 Attorney General.

People Will Talk.

You may get through the world, but twill be very slow, l If you listen to all that Is said as you go; You'll be worried and fretted, and kept in a stew, For meddlesome tongues will have something to do, For people will talk. If quiet and modest, you'll have it pre- That your humble position is only as- sumed; You're wolf in sheep's clothing, or
 else you're fool, But don't get excited, keep perfectly cool,
 For people will talk. If generous and noble, they'll vent out their spleen, You'll hear some loud hints that you're selfish and mean; If upright, honest, and fair as the day. They'll call you rogue in sly, sneer---
 ing way,
 For people will talk. And then, if you show the least bold-
 ness of heart, Or slight inclination to take your own
 part, They will call you an upstart, conceit-
 ed and vain; But keep straight ahead, don't stop to
 explain,
 For people will talk. If threadbare your dress, or old-fash-
 toned your hat, Some one will surely take notice of
 that, And hint rather strong that you can't
 pay your way, But don't get excited whatever they say,
 For people will talk. If you dress in the fashion, don't think
 to escape, For they critieise then In a different
 shape; You're ahead of your means, or your
 tailor's unpaid; Bnt mind your own business, there's
 naught to be made,
 For people will talk. Now, the best way to do, is to do as
 you please, For your mind. if you have one, will
 then be at ease; Of course you will meet with all sorts
 of abuse, But don't think to stop them. it ain't
 any use,
 For people will talk.
